Lanzador Concept Teases First All-Electric Lamborghini

August 22, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

Lamborghini announces a concept “ultra GT car” that will someday become its first all electric vehicle as it continues to advance into the electric age following the introduction of its planned Revuelto plug-in hybrid super sports car. The Lamborghini Lanzador has arrived.

The Lanzador is a 2+2 coupe that mixes influence from the super-sports-coupe-on-stilts Huracan Sterrato and the long (almost 197 inches from bumper to bumper) Urus SUV. The end result is what Lambo is dubbing an extreme GT, which is a full-size luxury cruiser with the room, comfort, and quiet operation of a sports car. The prototype vehicle’s liftback design and raised ride height, however, give it a hint of active lifestyle utility flavor. If you’ve heard this one before, stop me.

At Monterey Car Week 2023, the Lamborghini Lanzador Concept Will Make Its Debut

I chatted with Mitja Borkert, Lamborghini’s Design Lead, who emphasized how the Lanzador makes use of distinctive Lamborghini design cues like the greenhouse and shoulders that are squared off, the single roofline that sweeps from the nose to the tail, and the cab-forward proportions.

The ultra GT’s goal of being a comfortable, luxurious commuter and the realities of designing around an electric battery pack contributed to the Lanzador’s large size and tall ride height, but the automaker was still able to produce a car with a surprisingly low seating position and, hopefully, a driving experience reminiscent of the Revuelto.

The Lanzador’s multi-genre architecture is supported by a network of performance systems that is very adaptable and configurable. CEO Stephan Winkelmann hinted to an expected power output of over a megawatt (over 1,341 horsepower) through the concept’s wheels using a full-electric all-wheel drive system.

It was later revealed to me in an interview by Lambo CTO Rouven Mohr that the Lanzador is most likely going to remain with two electric motors rather than three or more, since this is what the brand’s engineers believe to be the ideal number for power, weight, packaging, and driving experience.

The crazy aerodynamics of the Lanzador piqued my curiosity the most. In order to accomplish the Lanzador’s goal of being a grand tourer that drivers will have to deal with on a daily basis, according to Mohr, it was necessary to conceal one of the most sophisticated active aerodynamics systems I’ve ever seen inside and beneath the EV’s silhouette.

When more downforce is required, motorized aerodynamic components in the bumpers, front splitter, and rear diffuser instantly deploy. To minimize drag, under-hood louvres pull high-pressure air from the wheel arches. To direct air over or through the spoiler built into the rear decklid, carbon-fiber strakes sprout from each side of the rear skylight.

Even the headlights have air passages to channel air over and through other aerodynamic components that are tucked away on or beneath the hood.

The Lanzador’s transformation from a low-drag cruiser to a high-downforce performance, with the aerodynamic components deploying and the suspension locking in, is something like witnessing a Transformer in action, but Mohr was most pleased with the company’s upcoming Integrated Control software.

Hardware won’t affect the game in the future, claims Mohr. “You need a certain amount of hardware, but the Integrated Control system is the game-changer because it determines how the automobile is responding. We use [software version] 3.0 in our first electric car, which means we combine all active systems, including active aerodynamics. We also have a lot more options for steering the electrical model, which will help us drive very well.

Lamborghini anticipates that this Integrated Control version 3.0 will also incorporate machine learning and artificial intelligence technology to adapt to the driver and the driving conditions.

For instance, it might predict grip based on data from the sensors and adjust the torque distribution of the electric motors, or it might observe the driver’s behavior on a long, straight stretch of highway and modify the aerodynamics and suspension for greater range and comfort. Driver assistance technology will also receive more attention on the Lanzador, and piloted and automated driving technologies are expected to debut.

Two Door Lamborghini Urus Makeover By Mansory

January 11, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

Lamborghini Urus Gets A Mansory Makeover And Becomes A Two-Door SUV

Mansory enjoys tuning the most potent luxury automobiles imported from Europe. The company’s improvements frequently include a body package and a power-boosting engine tune-up. The Lamborghini Urus’s four doors are converted into a high-riding, two-door coupe in its most recent design, which goes beyond that.

Following several requests through its custom program, Mansory opted to convert the Urus into a two-door SUV. The Venatus Coupe Evo C had significant modifications to complete the conversion, which took the aftermarket expert around a year and a half to accomplish.

Mansory repositioned the B-pillar of the Urus by 200 millimetres (7.87 inches). The front doors increase in length while keeping their regular safety features and getting an outside Y-shaped crease. The tuner also enlarged the back fenders and added new C-pillar intake garnishes along with large side intakes.

That’s on top of the outrageous body package that’s been added to the vehicle, which gives the SUV a bold front end, a sizable wing, a busy diffuser, and many other unique design features.

The Venatus Coupe Evo C was based on Mansory’s Venatus Evo S design. The engine was left unchanged, producing the same 900 horsepower (671 kilowatts) and 811 pound-feet (1,100 Newton-meters) of torque for the two-door. According to Mansory, the SUV can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.9 seconds. It has a top speed of 200 mph (323 km/h), which is 10 mph faster than the standard model.

Mansory provides a wide selection of customization choices for the inside of the Lamborghini. This illustration has a black trim, a teal cabin, and white stitching. In order for passengers to reach the two back seats, the tuner also installed a folding mechanism to the front seats.

It defies the Urus’s purpose to convert it into a two-door SUV, but Mansory wouldn’t have made it if there wasn’t a market for it. Additionally, the aftermarket expert intends to build 8 Venatus Coupe Evo C SUVs, so this isn’t a one-off. The cost of the Urus modification was not disclosed by the business, but given that the donor Urus begins at about $230,000 in the US, we highly doubt it is affordable.

Lamborghini Confirms Electric Urus Will Debut Soon

May 14, 2022 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The Lamborghini Urus is presently one of the most powerful and costly SUVs on the market. This appears to be insufficient for some clients, since the Italian business is working on a more extreme version, which will be released later this year. We’re afraid we’ll have to disappoint you if you were expecting for a completely electric version. It will most likely happen, but not with this generation of Urus.

Drive recently got the opportunity to get down with Lamborghini design chief Mitja Borkert and discuss a variety of issues. A inquiry concerning a possible zero-emissions edition of the super-SUV was one of them, and Borkert originally affirmed the EV but then backed down a bit.

“Sooner or later, the Urus will become electric… to be honest, the world’s legislation, as well as societal acceptability – the trend is definitely headed in this direction,” the designer told the Australian outlet. “I’m not suggesting the Urus replacement will go electric right now, but electrification makes more sense for these sorts of automobiles.”

Borkert’s statements are tough to interpret, but we may deduce that the executives in Sant’Agata Bolognese are at least contemplating an electric Urus. It appears that it will not be ready with this model generation. Given that its successor won’t come until 2028, we’ll have to wait until the end of this decade to witness the Urus EV.

Borkert affirmed that, as far as the remainder of Lamborghini’s portfolio is concerned, the business will supply combustion power for as long as it is legally possible. However, the transition to electric powertrains is unavoidable. “People are still taught that V10 is emotional, but I’m not sure if young children will be satisfied with this in forty years. I, too, am a fan of the internal combustion engine, but I have no reservations about making the switch to electric.”
